In 1294 BCE, the fragile peace between the Hittite and Egyptian empires begins to fail. Hattu, now an experienced prince and commander, believes that war can still be prevented and leads a small company into the eastern borderlands where the two powers meet.

The mission becomes increasingly dangerous as hostile terrain, old enemies and political deception close around the party. Haunted by visions attributed to Ishtar, Hattu must decide whether his efforts can change the future or whether his attempt to preserve peace is helping to create the war he fears.
